Saved By a “Type” of Meatloaf
“Dyin’ at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of broken career
And I think somebody somewhere must be
tollin’ a bell…..
And the last thing I see is my heart, still beating
Oh breakin’ out of my body and flying away
Like an INFPeeeeeeeee………”

“If I do not want what you want, please try not
to tell me that my want is wrong.
Or if I believe other than you, at least pause
before you correct my view.
Or if my emotion is less than yours, or more,
given the same circumstances, try not to ask me
to feel more strongly or weakly.”

David Keirsey
Different Drums, Different Drummers
“Or yet if I act, or fail to act, in the manner of
your design for action, let me be.
I do not, for the moment at least, ask you to
understand me. That will come only when you
are willing to give up changing me into a copy
of you.”
